David;

Similar machines are made by Pryor, Telesis, Technifor, etc. They are collectively referred to as dot peen or pin stampers. They also mfg 'drag' equipment. You might want to contact a local tool and die shop to see if they have the equipment. Companies involved in UID marking might also have this 'technology'. Most companies that do work for the aerospace and automotive industries should have one or more.

I've used quite a few pin stampers in the development of Data Matrix symbols.

Thank you Carl.

I think these plates were done for the military, which makes me think a metal fabrication house (or similar) may have been involved.

Thanks for the links. Interesting stuff!

If they are done for the military, they almost have to be MIL-STD-130 compliant. Search for "UID marking + California" and you'll get a lot of companies that have that capability in California.

Then there is always the 100 ton screw press or knuckle press that uses a stamping die, but not for onsies.
